Weekend of Free Stuff and other fun happenings

This weekend Peter and I went to cape cod with my sister, her boyfriend, and andreea.

The free stuff began on our excursion to P-town. After a full day of climbing the monument, shopping, and watching two men running into the chapel to get married (cute) we stopped into the fudge factory to buy some fudge. Andreea bought some first and asked the fudge man to cut some off from her purchase so she could eat it right away. Instead he cut her an entirely different and free block of fudge to eat right away. Then peter and I bought some, and after that he goes "you three bought a lot, and seem to be together, so I'll just give you another half pound of fudge for free!" sweet!

That night the five of us went golfing. After Andreea lost her ball to the water TWICE, peter and josh ended up tying for first place and both ending with the final hole a hole in one. This meant they both got little trophies and tokens for a free game in the future. The rest of us got temporary tattoos.

Even later that night after dinner we stopped in an arcade we saw on the way to our car. It had skee-ball so really I couldnt resist. We started playing when Andreea, Josh, and Julie all hit ridiculous jackpots on different games. We were 130 tickets short of our goal of winning Topple. The guy behind the counter goes "if you give me 5 bucks i'll just give you topple"....this sounded like a good deal but we also wanted to keep playing. So we played a few more dollars and won only a few tokens. We decided to give him the 5 bucks to get topple, to which he added "i'll give you 200 more tickets to get whatever candy you want as well". Somehow we walked out with nerd ropes for each of us, which actually was an additional 350 tickets. Sweet. Also ps, nerd rope turns out to be even better than it sounds.
